If you've bought pecans from Royalty Pecan Farms in the past, you may have noticed something has changed.
The Texas pecan grower announced in 2025 that it was moving from grower and retailer to grower only, and it handed its retail business to a Georgia based grower.
There's nothing wrong with buying Georgia pecans. But if you bought from Royalty because you wanted pecans from a Texas pecan grower, we'd like to introduce you to another Texas family.
Millican Pecan Company has been growing pecans in San Saba, Texas since 1888. Five generations later, we're still here.
We grow pecans. We shell and process them. We keep them in cold storage to protect their freshness. And we ship fresh pecans, flavored pecans, chocolate pecans, pies, candy, and Texas pecan gifts directly to customers across the country.
So if you're a former Royalty Pecan Farms customer asking, "Where can I buy Texas pecans now?" you don't have to leave Texas. Welcome to Millican Pecan Company.
Does Royalty Pecan Farms Still Sell Pecans?
Royalty still grows pecans, but it no longer sells them to retail customers. After more than 40 years of serving customers as both a grower and a retailer, the Royalty family handed off its retail side.
That's a real change if you were used to buying straight from a Texas orchard. Ordering the way you always have won't work anymore, so a lot of longtime customers are looking for a new place to buy.
Looking for Texas Pecans? Here's Where We Fit In
Maybe you loved knowing your pecans came from Texas. Maybe you like supporting a family farm close to home. Or maybe you just want fresh pecans for the holidays from someone who grows them.
We're not Royalty Pecan Farms, and we're not trying to take its place. We're a different Texas family with our own orchard, our own recipes, and our own way of doing things. We'd simply like the chance to earn your business.
Meet the Millican Family
Our family's pecan story began in 1888 in San Saba, Texas, a town widely known as "the Pecan Capital of the World". More than 135 years later, the Millican family is still here, still growing pecans, and still putting our name on what we sell. For us, the pecan isn't a sideline. It's the family business.
We grow pecans. We shell and process them. We package them and ship them to customers across the country. When you buy from us, you're buying from the people who grew the pecans.
Why We Keep Our Pecans in Cold Storage
Pecans are rich in natural oils, and those oils are what give them their flavor. They're also why freshness matters and why proper storage makes such a difference.
That's why we keep our pecans in cold storage to protect their freshness until they're ready to ship to you. A fresh pecan should taste rich and buttery, not stale.
What You Can Buy From Millican Pecan
Whatever you used to order from Royalty, there's a good chance you'll find something you love here. Depending on availability, we offer:
That means you can fill your holiday baking order and send gifts to your family in the same order.
Pecans for Holiday Baking
Fall is when many families start thinking about pecan pies, cookies, breads, and holiday gifts. If you used to place a Royalty order for Thanksgiving or Christmas, it's smart to line up your new pecan source early.
Fresh pecan halves are great for pies and toppings. Pecan pieces work well in cookies, breads, and stuffing. And an extra bag in the freezer means you're ready for whatever the season brings.
Texas Pecan Gifts for Family and Business
If you used to send Royalty pecans as gifts, we can help there too. Our gift boxes, tins, and baskets lead back to San Saba and a family that's been in the pecan business since 1888.
They work for family and friends, and they work for business too. Clients, employees, and vendors can eat them, share them with the office, or bake with them, which beats another trinket headed for a desk drawer.
Why Buy Pecans From a Texas Pecan Grower?
Buying from a grower shortens the distance between the orchard and your kitchen. You're dealing with a family whose reputation depends on one crop, and who can tell you where the pecans came from.
Our name is on every bag, so the pecan has to be good.
